English term or phrase: horizontal tote bag
"Available in a small and large satchel, a small and medium bowling bag, a boston bag, a horizontal tote bag and a weekend bag..."

Ich sitze an einem Werbetext für eine Taschenkollektion. Ist ein "tote bag" eine Tragetasche? Eine Einkaufstasche? Und wie übersetzt man das "horizontal" am elegantesten?

Vielen Dank schon mal!

agree  Cornelia Blume: vielleicht eher Längs- oder Querformat als längliche Form?
